Any thoughts on this Ted Baker bad-boy? Dont own a wool blazer but not sure if Green should be the first choice....it's a lovely fit though and great quality, versatile enough to wear with jeans or chinos.....

A batch of APC Petit New Standards popped up on eBay for £85 so I've snapped up a pair. No returns, so I hope I've correctly negotiated the notorious pitfalls of sizing APCs - figure they won't be too hard to sell on if I've got it wrong!

Tried this on in store last week, looks and feels superb. Did prefer the one with boxer inside pattern but was put off by the £250 price tag.

Hi mate I see they have others on sale. Any chance you can post to let me know it's definitely as they claim when it arrives please? I'm off on holiday in January and need a new bag. Would kill for one of those considering they're going for the same price range as canvas or cotton does new.

Will do, but they are obviously real if you look at the pictures, feedback and variety of items and the conditions they are in.

Would be some crazy counterfeiting operation, making every bag uniquely worn.

The codes on most of them indicate that they were made in France in the 90s - totally believable that all these Japanese peeps bought tons of LV that is too worn out for them to use now, so it gets moved out of the country at a profit by some savvy eBayer.

How badly worn is it? Levels where rich people who can afford to buy replacements get rid when not necessary or pretty well worn? Would love one but don't want to look like a tramp either like some people who use designer items well past their sell-by date cos of what they cost.
